sshd: Allow ed25519 key authentication

Toon Claes requested to merge tc-ed25519-sshd into main

What does this Merge Request do and why?

So far sshd, being either opensshd or gitlab-shell, only accepted RSA key authentication. This change adds a key to be able to use the ed25519 algorithm as well.
